Trapper Arts Retreat in NW Wisconsin has (3) waterfront sites and (1) wooded site. Located on a 1/4 mile long dead-end road (except Bob Lake West) on a 90 acre clear water no-wake lake and only 5 minutes from the Chippewa County Forest! The Chippewa County Forest (over 10,000 acres) Hickory Ridge Trailhead is located about 5 miles away. You can enjoy miles of hiking, biking, ATV or horseback riding trails. Trails wind past small lakes and beaver ponds, as well as spectacular vistas and abundant wild life. LIST OF SITES (all of our sites now include a portable toilet, firewood, fire ring, water, power, picnic table and/or chairs). BIRCH Waterfront is named for the beautiful birch trees that frame your view of the lake that also includes soothing evening loon sounds :) It is our medium size campsite with a level gravel and grass pad with lakefront access via the long wooded dock and an included row boat for fishing and boating. EAGLE POINT Waterfront is a favorite because it is the most private, surrounded by trees and is on a elevated waterfront lot with steps down to a dock. This site has a canoe and a row boat and the best spectacular sunset views. The eagle's nest is in a tall pine tree above the steps! BOB LAKE WEST Waterfront is our only site that is not on this dead end road. It is located on the west side of the lake near the boat landing. This site has a bonus small storage shed which could be a cool kids cabin. It is partially wooded elevated site with stunning sunrise views. WOODED RUSTIC is a non-waterfront campsite for both tents or RV's that has been updated to a level site with power and water and includes access to the lake and a row boat at our common access which is only about 200 yards down the road from this site. RV's can park on the gravel pad and tent guests can setup down the walking trail in the woods. This property was previously owned by Trapper Art who was well known in the area and started several successful businesses dating back to 1967 including Art's Snowmobile, Trapper Arts, and Art's Electric which was quite an accomplishment in the Wisconsin Northwoods!

Bob Lake - Birch Waterfront
The site is easy to access and has a beautiful view. The pictures on the app don’t do it justice. Even though our stay started out rainy, the ground is level and drained quickly so we were still able to enjoy time outside. We will certainly be back to enjoy more fishing and time on the dock!

The campsite was private and met our needs. Plenty of room for the dogs to run off leash. Great of fishing on the lake and made use of the provided row boat.

Beautiful site on a peaceful lake. The hosts, Brenda and Mike, were very accommodating and ensured our stay was going to be great. Our kids loved it, and we will be back!

Bob Lake - Eagle Point Waterfront
Great time! totally private
We loved our stay at Brenda's place! Very secluded, the lake was dreamy, access to two boats. The owners brought out a floaty and charcoal for us to use. The campsite is huge, with gorgeous tall mature pines. We liked that the ground was covered in pine needles vs dirt everywhere. Having access to electric and water was a huge plus. We would stay here again for sure!

A great find on our “just wing it” camping trip. Brenda responded right away and husband Mike was so friendly and accommodating. We really enjoyed the peacefulness and the perks of electric/water hookup. Our dog was so happy to jump off the dock and swim. She was smiling from ear to ear!
